well i haven't been on here in quite some time i just got the tapatalk app back on my phone. i have done alot of things since i have removed the cab and sold the bed and bought a chevy 454 with a turbo 400 to go into the truck (yea i know offend the masses) but its unique i have stripped the frame. and took out the leaf springs as well as the aux springs...not sure why it had them since its an f-2. I undercoated the frame and am in the process of putting newer springs and shocks. thats right about where i am.

Wow alot has happened in two years.... I ditched the leafs since I couldn't get them to work right and went with more cost effective coils in the back. I ended up tearing the block down and found that the head gasket was bad on passenger side also to my surprise found that it had been bored 30 over making it a 462. It is currently waiting for $$$ to have traction bars and rolling on all 4 wheels.
